Product overview
Protein Creatinine Ratio Assay Kit (ab272539) is a simple and convenient test for proteinuria. Other methods such as 24 hour urine test or timed urine test require strict adherence to sample collection protocol. Since the protein concentration is normalized to creatinine secretion, the urine sample can be taken at anytime and no diet or liquid restrictions are necessary for sample collection.
Sensitive and accurate: Use 20 μL samples. Linear detection range in 96-well plate: 1 - 20 mg/dL Protein and 1 – 150 mg/dL Creatinine.
Fast and convenient: No sample pre-treatment is needed. Simple 10- minute "add-incubate-read" procedure.
High-throughput adaptable: The procedure can be readily automated for processing thousands of samples per day.

Relevance
Creatinine, or creatine anhydride, is a breakdown product of creatine phosphate in muscle. The loss of water molecule from creatine results in the formation of creatinine. Creatinine is transferred to the kidneys by blood plasma, whereupon it is eliminated from the body by glomerular filtration and partial tubular excretion. Creatinine is usually produced and excreted at a fairly constant rate, and blood creatinine is used to determine glomerular filtration rate (GFR), a measure of kidney function.
